FREELANCE ENGINEER / INDEPENDENT DEVELOPER

TOKYO, JAPAN · 2026

AI agents.Apps.Web services.

I’m technobibi, a freelance software engineer. Alongside contract work on AI agent development projects, I research AI agents and plan, build, and operate my own apps and web services.

AI AGENT WORKFLOWAI × HUMAN
From a human-written issue to an AI-submitted PR

Issue-driven AI development

01 / IssuesHUMAN TASK

A human writes the tasks, clarifying requirements, goals, acceptance criteria, and what is out of scope so AI can work independently.

02 / PlanAI TASK

AI reads the issues and designs the functionality and tests. It decides which work can be implemented and validated together, and in what order.

03 / ImplementAI TASK

The plan is handed to the implementation AI, which writes tests and code using test-driven development.

04 / ValidateAI TASK

AI runs tests and static checks, and verifies relevant screens and actual behavior. It records evidence for each acceptance criterion.

05 / ReviewAI TASK

Multiple AI models, separate from the implementation agent and each in an independent session, review the diff against acceptance criteria and specialist review perspectives.

06 / Submit PRAI TASK → HUMAN TASK

AI submits changes that meet the acceptance criteria as a pull request, attaches validation and review evidence, and checks CI. A human reviews the PR; some changes may be merged automatically.

ENGINEERING, END TO END.From concept to development and operations.

02 EXPERIENCE

Projects across four years of engineering

AI ENGINEERING

Engineering automation

  • Designed harnesses and execution loops for autonomous AI development: issue-driven planning, design, implementation, validation, review, and pull request submission

  • Built CI/CD review gates combining CI, static checks, and AI reviews to automatically merge changes assessed as safe and route risky changes to human review

  • Automated post-merge deployments and database migrations

  • Built pipelines from CVE detection through patch generation, validation, and deployment

  • Automated issue creation and fix pull requests for application errors detected by Sentry

  • Independently delivered software from business problem discovery through requirements, design, implementation, release, and operations

  • Developed systems with integrated AI capabilities

  • AI-native development using Claude Code and Codex

  • Contributed to projects at major technology companies

  • Started with Java and built foundational development experience without AI assistance

  • Led a team of five

  • Worked in development teams of more than 100 people

  • Maintained a POS system handling hundreds of millions of records annually and serving more than three million members

  • Designed the architecture of a multi-tenant software package for public administration

03 RESEARCH & TOOLS

Technology & research

My independent research explores model routing and Japanese instruction optimization. I currently have limited time for this research. I also help scope, prototype, and implement AI for business workflows.

Independent research

Routing between local LLMs and cloud models

Research and design for routing tasks between local LLMs and cloud models using semantic task embeddings. The approach compares success rates, execution time, and cloud usage across groups of similar tasks, with an evaluation harness collecting comparative data.

Optimizing Japanese instructions

Research into making Japanese instructions actionable for models by resolving polite or indirect phrasing and filling in omitted context.

MODEL STACK

Choosing models for the task

Models and tools I use

Implementation and agent execution
Claude Code / Codex
Security review and vulnerability detection with multiple models
The above, plus Grok / Gemini / Sakana Fugu
Image and video analysis
Gemini — my preferred model for image and video analysis

I have multiple models independently examine the same work, then compare where they agree and disagree. This helps reduce blind spots from any single model and increases confidence where their findings align.

TECHNOLOGY STACK

Technologies used in client work and my own products

Technologies I use to develop and operate products, both on client projects and independently.

Backend
Go / Python (FastAPI)
Web frontend
TypeScript / React / Next.js
Mobile apps
Flutter
Infrastructure and development operations
AWS / GCP / Cloudflare / GitHub Actions / Terraform
Error monitoring
Sentry
